Thanks. It’s short prep time, but I’m going to give it a shot anyway.

That was a good one. I am down another pound this morning. That will be 20 since my heaviest in January. I think it is probably the lightest I have been in four or five years. At this point I am doing nothing more that drinking more water, no sugar and no snacks after 7:00 PM.

I took today and tomorrow off. My wife and I are going to the Ice Cube concert tonight. I thought it was important to get a good pump going. I’m thinking the tight T-shirt is on for the concert.

What’s on the T Shirt?

I’m going to a reggae concert next week, and I was gonna wear an Ice Cube T shirt.

Straight up black T-shirt. Kinda going for the bouncer look.

The last heavy deadlift workout before the meet. I’ll hit my opener on the 31st. I had to take a short break after the 12th rep at the 315. My goal was 15 reps, and I knew I would be kicking myself if I didn’t do it.

I haven’t worked that hard at the gym after work in a while. I was going to do carries last night, here in the Northwest we are in our 5th season - smoke. I have posted some photos below. Excuse the dry spots in my yard. It has been impossible to keep it wet. Last night was even worse. It looked like fog outside, but it was smoke.

Had similar here in Denver. My AM drive is at sunrise, with a giant orange/red ball in the sky.
Pretty, but sad of course.
